Hi!
You got an error because this is a bazaar, not a svn repository, repository.
By the way, all the instructions are here:
http://www.vaudano.eu/wiki/en/estardictInstallation#Development_in_Ubuntu_Karmic
I tried eStarDict with chinese charset and it works fine.
If you need help for making it works on the Ben NanoNote, please ask me.
If you success please post some screenshots :)

Luca

 I think you want to use a software midi synthesizer and you did
 nothing to actually accomplish that :)
 I guess you need to install and configure timidity.

Actually, already installed timidity :)
You can get my package here
ftp://shulyaka.org.ru/pub/timidity_2.13.2-r0.4_armv4t.ipk , though I
don't remember if it works out-of-the box without manual configuration
or installing of a soundfont.
I can use it as a stand-alone midi player, but if I try to start it as
ALSA server I get the same error:

r...@neo ~ $ timidity -iA
TiMidity starting in ALSA server mode
ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No

error in snd_seq_open

 And yes, the
 kernel module is missing because CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER is not set. I
 assume this needs to be corrected. Can you test it's the only option
 needed please?

That's where I failed: I can't compile the kernel myself.
I did everything as advised in
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Building%20SHR , but `make
kernel` fails with '/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc'. I think it's a
dependency problem and I need to compile something first, but I just
can't guess what. `bitbake glibc` doesn't do the trick and also fails
with find_exidx.c:(.text+0x901b8): undefined reference to

I used thttpd mostly to share openstreetmap tiles using openlayers

Yes, I've used it in train and other meetings where not all people
have flatrate GPRS.

Re: [NEW DISTRIBUTION] Announcing NEOPhysis

2010-03-09 Thread Aditya Gandhi
Why don't we really combine all efforts instead of making a huge and heavy
fso which is indeed short of a good phone into something more specific and
quicker.
We are trying to make a desktop out of a phone, we should well concentrate
on speed and reliability of operations we do. I don't think I would like to
use a phone which takes 5 min to boot up, 3 min to start an app and crashes
very frequently. I would love to start from scratch and clean up all the
mess. I don't think these guys have anything against fso but I'm sure they
felt the same as many other Freerunner users.
I don't mean to ridicule your efforts on fso all I want to say is it can be
quicker and better if you don't plan on supporting everything possible
(qt,gtk,enlightenment)  even if you do not everything all together ,
different flavors of fso might help better.
I really wish fso reaches its goal but still while giving usable images as
it goes.

IIRC, FSO is pretty quick to start...most of the time spent is for X,
wm, etc (may be udev also plays a role there...I've never
benchmarked).
For me, opimd had been quite slow (i've some 1500 messages and may be
double that phone logs...and im reluctant to remove those...fresh db
hardly took any time). I am still to update my phone to new opimd...I
really hope that the new db structure does things faster...btw, opimd
slowed down the things while coming...I think it loads everything at
least once during initialization...but thats what *I* *think*.

Re: Rolling dices on OpenMoko

Am 08.03.2010 19:13, schrieb Xavier Cremaschi:
 Hi folks,

 I would like to develop a free software to roll dices (for role playing
 games). My inspiration comes from : http://www.machwerx.com/apps/MachDice/
 which seems to be a very great soft ! Lot of nice ideas, but only for
 iPhone :(

 I don't think I could make something better than this soft, which is the
 result of lots of nice ideas (if you compare v1 and v2 you can see the
 evolution), but -- being a coder and a role playing gamer -- here are my
 goals :
 - using MachDice ideas (entering formulas, having a formula history,
 having workspaces, can block dices...), because these are great ideas
 and I don't think it worth trying to find a better conception. MachDice
 author you're a clever guy, kudos!
 - a good looking soft, but with low graphics to fit openmoko abilities
 - a portable software, because openmoko and non-openmoko users could be
 interested (except iPhone users who already have this soft).
 - having fun coding it (I don't think I will use it, I love rolling real
 dices :P)

 About coding :
 - for 3D : OpenGl or ???
 - for non-3D : Qt4 or EFL.

 I am not sure about using OpenGl or not... I know the tech, and OpenGl
 would be great when soft runs on PC, but what about openmoko ? AFAIK,
 because of a lack of OpenGl ES support, any OpenGl app would run on
 mesa/software-acceleration-by-cpu. Without OpenGl I don't know how I can
 do 3d, any idea ?

 For Qt4 vs EFL :
 - qt4 is ok for ~all linux distribs, windows, and QtMoko (I think). What
 about SHR ?
 - elf is ok for ~all linux distribs (I think), SHR, and some packages
 exists for windows
 (http://fr.enlightenment.org/2009/05/31/efl-installateur-windows-xp/) so
 portability is ok (linux = main target for me)


 Thanks in advance for any advice (^^)
 Xavier Cremaschi.
